Bag It

We all know color blocking is huge, but what about for bags? Mixing colors on your accessories is always a great way to spice an outfit.

Asos, Aldo Virga Clutch, $71
The turquoise trim really makes this bag for me. Such a small but noticeable pop of color.

I'm a sucker for polka dots and this is no exception. Amazing.

Chic to the extreme, I love the patent leather.

Color blocking isn't just for clutches, here is a great tote for work or weekend.

I just love mixing punchy colors, but if you're not feeling brave to wear it, try accessorizing with it!

Brass Jewelry

Hey lovebugs,
Most of you know I usually wear gold jewelry but lately, I'm feeling a different metal: brass. It's a little vintage, a little boho chic, and always a good option.

How much fun is this pendant? I love it's funky, cool quality.


Max and Chloe, Chibi Brass Arrow Bracelet, $50
This bracelet is perfect for stacking. It is light and slim, great for an arm party.

Saks Fifth Avenue, Bing Bang Ornate Hoop Earrings, $89
Certainly not your average hoop earrings, these have a great architectural quality.

Revolve Clothing, Giles and Brother Spike Ring, $63
A little badass don't you think?

Brass is such a great metal for any casual outfit, it has a great 'not trying too hard' look about it.

Collared Up

I wore a school uniform from preschool until I graduated from high school, so I have a special place in my heart for collars. Right now it seems that they are coming back! Maybe not in an oxford style but a peter pan collar and even removable collars. Let's take a look.

Modcloth, Academic Achievement Top, $57
Great rounded collar, small pattern and silky sophistication.

Short sleeved and sweet as pie, don't you think?

Ann Taylor, Shawl Collar Blouse, $88
Ok, well the color is fantastic. But the faux wrap effect of this top is so breezy and light; great for a suit jacket of belted.

This model is way too thin for my liking but the dress is beautiful-great impact color dress.

See, collars don't have to be so prep school- they can be sweet and sexy.

Chevron

Hey lovebugs,
Happy Monday to you! Can you believe March is almost over? Spring is coming and one pattern that I'm really loving for the warmer weather is chevron.

Tinley Road, Chevron Dress, $59
Great colors, great price and the sleeves are perfect for the transition to warmer weather.

Forever 21, Chevron scarf, $7
I'm picturing this with a beat up denim jacket for coffee on weekend.

Loving the hemlines on this piece great change of pattern direction.

Neiman Marcus, Nara Pave and Quartz Studs, $85
I really like the idea of a single chevron on a simple stuff earring, kind of rocker.

How are you styling chevron right now? I think it's a great pattern to mix with any color, something different than your normal stripe.
